CLINICAL CASE STUDY 2 Cecilia is 3 months postpartum after a normal labor and full-term delivery tells you that she is exclusively breastfeeding her baby about eight times a day but is very tired and is not getting much sleep because her always seems fussy between feedings-day and night. She has been determined to lose her "baby weight" and for the past 6 weeks, she has been restricting her caloric intake to around 1200 calories/day, including approximately six diet drinks every day. She reports that the pediatrician told her that the baby's weight gain has slowed over the past month and she would like her to begin supplementing the baby with formula. She is hesitant to do this because her goal is to continue breast- feeding exclusively until the baby is 6 months old, and then possibly continue until at least the baby's first birthday.

Explanation / Answer

1.We should tell Cecilia about losing her baby weight as a major concern due to her inappropriate diet. As part of developmental milestones of a baby, growth weight is an important parameter. The baby will turn malnourished if this continues, hampering the normal development, she needs to chain her diet.
